Hi all
Can anyone offer any kind wisdom? We’ve been married for 46 years this year. He’s 67 and I just turned 65. Since we sold the family home 12 years ago things seem to have disintegrated. It’s been a bit of a roller coaster with us moving several times in that time. We can’t seem to both agree on where we want to live. We lived in Bromley but moved to the coast in 2015. I loved it but he missed a bigger garden and all his old contacts and friends. He also wasn’t happy with the house which I loved. We could hear the sea and we had sea, sunset and sunrise views. It was new and really the house of my dreams with sun and light flooding in. He couldn’t settle and didn’t feel ready to retire in spite of the fact we’d made 4 sets of friends in the space of one year including our neighbours who we regularly socialised with. He insisted on driving up and down the M20 for work and since we’d been mowed down by a lorry and were lucky to survive I became paranoid about him having an accident. Long story short I compromised and gave in so we moved to Chiselhurst after 3 years by the sea. We bought a project and I had to live in it whilst the work was done. It was incredibly stressful and dirty. I was ok whilst it was going on but once done I started to dream about my old home and life by the sea. I really can’t settle in this new place it feels all wrong. We have no view other than the small garden, and countryside walks bore me, I just yearn to walk by the sea. We don’t have private pensions to speak of and have limited funds which will probably run out after about 7 years so we will have to downsize and move again. I feel so incredibly flat and have completely lost my zest for life and though I care for him I know I don’t love him anymore. I have no respect and just get so frustrated with him. I feel that for his sake as well as mine we should live apart. I have tried to figure out ways of doing this financially but we don’t have enough to buy a separate home each and I am not earning now so couldnt support myself. He needs to retire fully now too. I would like to buy a small place by the sea by myself but realise I will be very isolated. There’s loads more to complicate things but I would have to go on and on! .......
